A Lifetime Lyrics

Artist: Better Than Ezra
Album: Closer

Allie woke up 8AM, graduation day.Got into a car, crashed along the way.

When we arrived late to the wake,Stole the urn while they looked away,And drove to the beach 'cause I knew you'd want it that way.

And you were standing on the hood of the carSinging out loud when the sun came up.

And I know I wasn't right, but it felt so good.And your mother didn't mind, like I thought she would.And that REM song was playing in my mind.And three and a half minutes, felt like a lifetime

felt like a lifetime

And you move like water, yeahI could drown in you.And I felt so deep once, till you pulled me through

You would tell me, "No one is allowed to be so proudThey never reach out when they're giving up."

And I know I wasn't right, but it felt so good.And your mother didn't mind, like I thought she would.And that REM song was playing in my mind.And three and a half minutes, felt like a lifetime

Are you sitting in the lights?Or combing your hair again,And talking in rhymes?Are you sitting in the lights?

When I got home, heard the phone, your parents had arrived.And your dad set his jaw, your ma just smiled and sighed.

But they left soon and I went to my room.Played that disc that you'd given me,And I shut my eyes, swear I could hear the sea.

When we were standing on the hood of your carSinging out loud when the sun came up.

And I know I wasn't right, but it felt so good.And your mother didn't mind, like I thought she would.And that REM song was playing in my mind.And three and a half minutes,Three and a half minutes, felt like a lifetime.
